I am becoming disillusioned with my Hotmail account. I never seem to get any good email to my Hotmail account. And the stuff that I do get, I can't seem to set the filters to stop. So I see '2 new e-mail messages' and I get excited, only to find that the emails in question are advertisements for mortgage loans, or some such idiocy, and Viagra messages. I may need Viagra, but I'm not getting it from a spam email source.
Perhaps I am not trawling for the right things to have delivered to my Hotmail account. Anyone have some thoughts on how to get better messages in my Hotmail account?
Toodles!

I happened to be in Saskatoon this afternoon, attending meetings, fulfilling appointments, and making some calls on engineers I am currently working with, on projects. As I drove around, thinking about work, and whether to stop for Dairy Queen, I made an observation.
Is that sign, indicating traffic lights ahead, on the northbound off-ramp from Idylwyld onto Circle Drive, the oldest sign in the city? The bloody thing is all faded, and washed out. It looks like its 40 years old.
Other than that, I have nothing to say about today.

If you can have a sense of humor about it, getting spam in your email can provide you with a daily shot of mild amusement. Take for instance one of the spam emails I got in my inbox over the weekend:
Reply: Shy Prostitute wants to meet you
In the first place, how can you be a shy prostitute? Doesn't the career choice of prostitute mean that you can't be shy? Yes, you can, by nature, be shy and still be a prostitute. However picking that job kinda means you have to put aside your retiring inclinations, does it not?
Secondly, given that she wants to meet me, aren't we back to point number one? Okay, she's shy, but given that I'm getting this comment about 'wanting to meet me' via email, isn't it a commercial interest? If I understand the situation properly, wouldn't her interest in me be monetarily based, and thus a scenario where she can't be shy?
Like I said to start, there's amusement to be found in spam. Try it sometime. Just read a few of the headers, as they appear in your inbox. You might find a chuckle.
I gotta go. Someone just sent me an email that promises huge discounts on Viagra. I gotta check that out! Toodles!
